With 4 kids, I'm always interested in cheap healthy food options. Also glad to know that according to the HealthDay article, 34 is not quite middle age yet. The encouragement to exercise still applies, of course!

Exercise in Middle Age - it's great to be reminded of the benefits of exercise. I'm afraid of falling off the exercise wagon once I reach goal weight. Knowing there are so many health benefits is a great incentive.

Cheap Health Foods has some really great ideas. Today I bought a large amount of summer squash very cheap, brought it home, washed it, sliced it then froze it. I do this with many things that I find really cheap. My deep freeze is full. That leaves me with milk, yogurt, cottage cheese, etc. Reduces my shopping bills!

Transplant Centers Struggle With Donor Obesity is certainly an interesting article. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that being obese puts a strain on a person's kidneys so having TWO of them makes sense. That man who lost 70# so he could donate still runs the risk of regaining the weight if he doesn't work daily to keep it off. Richard Johnson M.D.'s book "The Sugar Fix" really explains why obesity is such a problem.
